DCC proxying means that all DCC requests get proxied through dircproxy just like your normal IRC requests. This means your real IP address is just as hidden as it is on IRC. Also, if you’re running dircproxy on your NAT firewall so you can actually get on IRC, you’ll be able to do DCCs to as it will be proxying them between the two networks for you.
